‘Everlasting’ was written especially for my ‘Fancy A Quickie 3’
play festival. It was on along with 7 other ‘new plays’ of mine that were performed in
Griffith NSW in 2013.

TROPFEST 2013!
What a wonderful experience yet again! We literally got this short film done in two weeks. I adapted the stage play for screen. Paul Barlow filmed and edited the short and Rachel Stocks and Douglas Ridgewell starred in it. There were a few behind the scenes personnel. My son, my husband, daughter, Janine and others. Whatever happens from now on is irrelevant, we can say we did it! They will announce the short list on 14th Febrary 2013
‘EVERLASTING’ – makes it into ‘Short and Sweet’ 2013!
A play life, death and an opportunity of a lifetime. ‘Everlasting’ is a new script and was first produced in ‘Fancy a Quickie 3’. I am extremely happy that it’s been selected in Short and Sweet, Sydney and will be performed February 16th and 17th.
